    • Marionette Show Using Quadrotors 

      Kim, Yongsung; Choi, Myung Geol; Lee, Jehee (ACM, 2017)
      A marionett?e show is a play with the puppet controlled from above using wires by human. One ends of the wires are connected on di?erent joints of the marione?e, and the other ends are tied on a control stick. ?e marione?ist ...
    • Motion Retargeting to Preserve Spatial Relationship between Skinned Characters 

      Jin, Taeil; Kim, Meekyung; Lee, Sung-Hee (ACM, 2017)
      Applying motion capture data for multi-person interaction to virtual characters is challenging because one needs to preserve interaction semantics in addition to satisfying the general requirements for motion retargeting, ...
    • Online Compression of Rigid Body Simulations using Physics-Inspired Interpolation 

      Jeruzalski, Timothy; Fiume, Eugene; Jacobson, Alec; Levin, David I.W. (ACM, 2017)
      Methods to compress simulation data are invaluable as they facilitate efficient transmission along the visual effects pipeline, fast and efficient replay of simulations for visualization and enable storage of scientific ...
    • Position-Based Multi-Agent Dynamics for Real-Time Crowd Simulation 

      Weiss, Tomer; Litteneker, Alan; Jiang, Chenfanfu; Terzopoulos, Demetri (ACM, 2017)
      Exploiting the e ciency and stability of Position-Based Dynamics (PBD), we introduce a novel crowd simulation method that runs at interactive rates for hundreds of thousands of agents. Our method enables the detailed ...
    • Regression-Based Locating Landmark on Dynamic Humans 

      Jang, Deok-Kyeong; Lee, Sung-Hee (ACM, 2017)
      We present a novel framework that consists of two-level regressors for finding correlations between human shapes and landmark positions in both body part and holistic scales. To this end, we first develop pose invariant ...
    • Sketch-Based 3D Hair Posing by Contour Drawings 

      Seki, Shogo; Igarashi, Takeo (ACM, 2017)
      We propose a sketch-based method for posing a three-dimensional (3D) hair model that enables artists to create attractive hairstyles more easily and intuitively. The system takes partial contour drawings of a preferred ...
    • The Stretch-Engine: A Method for Adjusting the Exaggeration of Bipedal Characters Through Squash and Stretch 

      Ibrahim, Zaid H. (ACM, 2017)
      This paper describes a new method to control changes in a character's form during exaggeration, through squash and stretch (SS). The Stretch-Engine is the result of this method, designed to be integrated into an existing ...
    • Understanding Spatial Perception and Visual Modes in the Review of Architectural Designs 

      Usman, Muhammad; Haworth, Brandon; Berseth, Glen; Kapadia, Mubbasir; Faloutsos, Petros (ACM, 2017)
      We investigate how a person's perception of space in di erent visual modes relates to common computational spatial measures for environment designs. The three spatial measures, grounded in Space-Syntax analysis, are used ...
    • Volumetric Muscle Controller 

      Lee, Seunghwan; Mitchell, Nathan; Aanjaneya, Mridul; Sifakis, Eftychios; Lee, Jehee (ACM, 2017)
      We describe a controller with a fully integrated musculoskeletal model actuated by more than a hundred muscles. Inspired by a QP-based control algorithm, we improved the algorithm to control the volumetric muscles directly. ...
